Cultural Cuisine Wins Cooking Competition

Cook a dish that represents your cultural background – that was the challenge given to the finalists of the Island School ESF Chef competition. The winning students impressed the judges with a Lebanese Lamb dish and a Seafood Special.

The panel of judges included: Principal Mr. Binge, members of staff from the technology department and ex-student Nitin Hiranandani who is currently doing an apprenticeship at a 3 star Michelin restaurant. Head of Food Technology and Hospitality Mr. Lord said: “The judges were very impressed with the high standard of food being served and unanimously agreed on the senior results, but the juniors split the decision and they had to go to the accumulative points score. Well done to all the finalists.”

The winners Anya Broad and Jordyn Dubinsky in the junior round and Charlotte Wong from the senior around will compete in the final of the ESF Chef competition on 29th May 2017 at at West Island School.
